Re: [CentOS] 5.6 - SRPM's
I'm hazarding a guess here - that the os/{i386,x86_64}/CentOS/*.rpm's that
have 'centos' in the name have had changes made for CentOS. The others
have not and the sources are available from upstream at eg
http://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/
Can anyone please confirm/deny that?
Oh well, so much for that idea! According to the release notes
(http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.6) there is a list
of packages modified by centos - and that includes httpd. So the
absence of 'centos' in the release string does _not_ mean that the
package is unmodified (ie it's merely re-built).
Sigh!!! Just have to wait for the centos SRPMS then
for me i do remove the repo's during kickstart however during an
upgrade they'll come back unless they are removed from the package.
I have just rebuilt the 5.5 release package to not have them and made
the changes to make it appear as the 5.6 release package so for me all
good.

Instead of removing the unwanted .repo files, replace them with empty files.
That way an upgrade should just result in a .rpmnew file being created.

Re: [CentOS] 5.6 - SRPM's
I got frustrated with having to edit my repo files every time an update came along to the release package, so I looked for a better way. What I found was http://www.gurulabs.com/goodies/YUM_automatic_local_mirror.php, which gave me the clues I needed to have my local repositories added to the mirror list dynamically. I hacked the script a bit to make it work with CentOS and fit my situation a bit better, but it's written in Perl so it should not be too hard to figure out. Once set up, all you need to do is point the DNS name mirrorlist.centos.org to your local server. I've used manual /etc/hosts entries and DNS, both work just fine. I've been using it for a couple of years now with good results.

I see the src's for the updates RPM's but not the base. many thanks As part of my build process I disable repos like that (and others that insert themselves in /etc/yum.repos.d) by echoing in during kickstart the line reposdir=/etc/yum.repos.d/custom to yum.conf. That way if I do have a need of a repo I can pop the file in there... but meanwhile updates that pop a .repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d have no effect on my systems. Could similar work for you without having to rebuild centos-release ? James ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] 5.6 - SRPM's
I added exclude=*releases for every repo that uses them (base/os, updates, rpmforge, atrpms, elrepo, ) since I use my own local copy of those repos. Yum just skips them.

(Sorry for the pun, I think I'm mostly talking to Tom ;-) I cannot speak for the other Tom but in my case I rebuild the centos-release rpm and add my own repo files so that all of my machines pull from my local repos. Yes, I know that the modified repo files do not get overwritten but that does not help for new machines nor does it help when I change my local configuration. When I rebuild the centos-release rpm I actually modify it so that a new version of the rpm overwrites any existing .repo files. That way I know all of the machines under my control are only pulling updates I have approved and placed into my local repos. It would be nice if this srpm was released with the main distro. Rebuilding other packages can come later when all of the srpms are available but this particular package is important for me being able to update the machines. In fact I usually end up hacking up the first cut of the centos-release rpm for a new release based on the previous version (in this case 5.5) so that I can do my upgrades. It is not all that hard to do but it would be easier if I had the official srpm. Regards, -- Tom Diehl ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Ah, I see now why you are doing this, I wasn't aware that the release package contains those .repo files. *However*, as I said earlier (and unless you use different filenames for your local repo) the new centos-release will *not* overwrite your existing CentOS-Base.repo file etc. So, if this is your concern: this is not a problem.

Kai In order to use my repo files, I move CentOS ones to backup subfolder, so update reinsert them. Since I already have my solution, I'll not return official *.repo files, but I will keep in mind .rpmnew stuff. I created my plc-* (mirrors) and plnet-* (addon packages from various repos for desktop use and packages compiled by me) release packages for various uses that are saved in subfolder(s) and then I developed small shell script that makes it possible to switch from one *.repo set to another (like from all of my repositories enabled, with official disabled, to only official with only my additional repositories). So if my server is down, I can update and install from official mirrors with ease. Ljubomir ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I see the src's for the updates RPM's but not the base.
I'm hazarding a guess here - that the os/{i386,x86_64}/CentOS/*.rpm's that
have 'centos' in the name have had changes made for CentOS. The others
have not and the sources are available from upstream at eg
http://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/
Can anyone please confirm/deny that?
I looked at a couple of examples including eg httpd -
rpm -qpi 5.6/os/x86_64/CentOS/rpm-4.4.2.3-22.el5.x86_64.rpm
Name: rpm Relocations: (not relocatable)
Version : 4.4.2.3 Vendor: CentOS
Release : 22.el5Build Date: Sun Mar 6 13:40:33 2011
Install Date: (not installed) Build Host: builder10.centos.org
Group : System Environment/Base Source RPM:
rpm-4.4.2.3-22.el5.src.rpm
Size: 3754140 License: GPLv2+
Signature : DSA/SHA1, Tue Mar 22 09:37:08 2011, Key ID a8a447dce8562897
URL : http://www.rpm.org/
Summary : The RPM package management system
...
... so it's built from rpm-4.4.2.3-22.el5.src.rpm ... the same _name_
as the upstream vendor's source.
Oddly, the 5.5 binary carries 'centos' in it's release field:
5.5/os/x86_64/CentOS/httpd-2.2.3-43.el5.centos.x86_64.rpm
... so the good devs had to make changes there, yet not for 5.6!!!???

Oh well, so much for that idea! According to the release notes
(http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.6) there is a list
of packages modified by centos - and that includes httpd. So the
absence of 'centos' in the release string does _not_ mean that the
package is unmodified (ie it's merely re-built).
Sigh!!! Just have to wait for the centos SRPMS then
